When Choosing New Appliances Size Matters

The biggest factor determining which new refrigerator, stove, microwave, or dishwasher you should choose for your new kitchen renovation isn’t its color, features, or even its price. It’s size.

If you purchase an appliance that is too large, it’s not going to fit into the allotted space. Get one that is too small and there will be gaps between countertops or cabinets that reduce efficiency and invite dirt and debris to accumulate in hard-to-reach spaces.

A better plan is to get new appliances that are the perfect size for the space created for them.

Measure Twice

In carpentry, there’s an old adage that goes, “Measure twice, cut once.” It refers to the idea that you can waste a lot less wood if you are 100% certain of the size of the board you need before you put a saw to it. The same holds true for new appliances for kitchen renovations.

While you aren’t limited to the type of appliance you should get, you will be limited to its size. Things like new refrigerators come in all kinds of sizes, including various heights, widths, and depths. Think carefully about functionality when you order your new appliances. For example, when you open the doors to the oven or refrigerator, will the dimensions of the room give you enough room to reach in and out easily?
